Secure email to mobile devices

Mobile email security – how and why to do it

Mobile devices promise greater flexibility and productivity, and you want your enterprise and employees to enjoy the full benefits. However, they’re sending, receiving and holding more data on mobile devices and losing more mobile devices than ever. This means a great deal of communication and data is outside your network – and outside your control.

How can you secure emails to mobiles?

The ideal situation is to enable BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) yet somehow protect your sensitive data. You could try to lock down your environment, but that won’t work; some will find a way around the rules and you won’t know who, when or where. You could try these approaches:

Prevent all mobile access to email - but you’ll lose productivity and staff

Allow access for a few - but you’ll get a fraction of the productivity gain

Rely on MDM software - but you’ll control the devices not the information

‘Contain’ emails - but it’s expensive and turns the device into a ‘brick’.

Or you could make the problem smaller

A simpler solution is to focus on just the 5-15% of emails that are sensitive. If you did, you could give all your people access to any mobile device and just filter email traffic for sensitive information.

This is precisely what janusGATE Mobile does, it:

Filters email traffic before it reaches the mobile device

Prevents sensitive information from reaching the device

Alerts the user to access the full email from the corporate desktop.
